the madness ends

What is this impossible task? Well it is comprised of 3 statements.

• If I create something so beautiful, then I will be deserving of love.
• If I don’t get love, then whatever I created just isn’t good enough. So I have to create something even better!
• Mother always said whatever I do was not good enough.

What I was made aware of today is that I have created something very beautiful in VoiceStory.

That I have been given love by the people touched by the work we do, and THIS fulfilled the task and I just couldn't see it.

Until now!

until now...

YES!

And when I saw the solution... I saw Grandfather.

I saw him smile.

I saw him reach down and touch my shoulder.

I heard "You did good!"

That is when I felt the tears stream down.

That is when I felt this massive weight I've been carrying all my life lift.

That is when I knew the madness ends.

That is when I felt him be set free.

be set free...

I heard your cries.

I lost you.

I said I am coming for you.

And I did.

I found you again.

Now I am not letting go.

not letting go...

Never again!

You are no longer alone.

We are together again.

As one.

All those valiant attempts to solve the riddle in the past.

I see them all.

I... we, will go acknowledge every single one of them!

every single one of them...

Every one.

You did good!

Just like that time you ran up with that 100% on the math test to show the world.

I'm proud of you.

I'll always be proud of you.
